.TH LIBBUS 7 BUS-%VERSION% .SH NAME libbus - A simple daemonless system for broadcasting messages locally .SH DESCRIPTION \fBbus\fP is a stupid-simple, thrilless, daemonless interprocess communication system for broadcasting messages. .SH RATIONALE We need an interprocess communication system similar to message queues. But we need broadcasting rather than anycasting, so we have a fast, simple and daemonless system for announcing events to any processes that might be interested. .SH FUTURE DIRECTION Private and abstract buses might be interesting. Timed out read and writes might be too. .SH SEE ALSO bus(1), bus(5), bus_create(3), bus_unlink(3), bus_open(3), bus_close(3), bus_write(3), bus_read(3), bus_poll_start(3), bus_poll_stop(3), bus_poll(3), bus_chown(3), bus_chmod(3) .SH AUTHORS Principal author, Mattias Andrée.
